  1. MacroBusiness: another one bites the dust.
    Today’s headline — “The new house price boom begins” — is pure property spruik propaganda. But if you actually read the article, it ends in a tone of deep concern about housing unaffordability, immigration-driven demand, and structural market failure. So which is it?
    This is classic bait-and-switch — reel in the punters with bullish noise, then quietly mutter about the mess underneath. It’s dishonest, and it’s deliberate.
    MacroBusiness once stood apart — sharp, data-driven, unafraid to challenge the real estate lobby or mainstream economic spin. But that era is over. These days, they’re churning out the same manipulated messaging as the rest. A compromised rag peddling housing FOMO while pretending to lament the consequences.
    This isn’t journalism — it’s narrative management for vested interests.

  6. Melbourne: A rare house price oasis in Australia’s overheated property market.

    While most capitals are pricing out first home buyers, Melbourne is quietly becoming more accessible — thanks in large part to Victoria’s investor-targeted tax regime.

    No praise, of course, is given to the state government for:
    • The Vacant Residential Land Tax (discouraging empty homes)
    • Higher land tax rates on investment properties
    • The windfall gains tax on rezoned land

    These measures have cooled investor demand and helped keep prices within reach of everyday buyers. Other states take note.

    We remember that #MacroBusiness has had very salient takes on economic matters over the years.

    We had to stop sharing their content because they use the #massSurveillance system as a service (aka CloudFlare), and they appeared hostile to sound-money that cannot be inflated into oblivion (aka #bitcoin).

    Might be worth taking another look soon, maybe they have updated.
